7:02 pm
year to travel will move barker reports from london. the financial air traffic services say they've identified the glitch. i now remedy the problem that threw a spiner in the works for the case, a violation network. and also created a domino effect impacting on travel across the continent and further field. the problem temporarily meant that the flight plans had to be inputted manually into that given system rather than all of that being done physically. and of course, it didn't mean that they were restrictions on the she had a number of volume of flights that could arrive a land or depart from british airports, especially from an airport like he probably, that is a major hub for international travel, particularly for transatlantic goods. and he's uh, the uh, plains take off and land every 90 seconds. so you can imagine you probably a little much in the vera veteran here at city. apple low,
7:03 pm
low for travel is going forward. not all of this resolution means that the things are suddenly remedied. full passengers are with the best for the get on their way every single flight here a city has been cancelled or rescheduled to at least choose a on this a buying call today. a national holiday, one of the busiest travel days of the the bulk i'll just say around london city, apple. it's all right. turn is libya now the top diplomat has been sacked after it emerged. she held a secret meeting with israel's foreign minister last week. the local media reporting that knows what all my goose has now fled the country. the meeting between the pair was of 1st of its kind and the 2 nations don't have any official ties. so libby as foreign ministry has sought to down play the media saying it was just a casual encounter. but israel's disputed that account saying the to our discussions in rome were agreed at the highest levels. now news of that meeting was 1st
7:04 pm
revealed by israel's foreign minister, eli cohen, and that spark protest across libya, demonstrators, for and is really flags and demanded that my goose be dismissed. now, normalization of ties with israel is a criminal offense under libyan law. to accomplish them. uh, so we condemn this meeting with israel, especially if the normalization was plumped and this, this meeting really happened. and if it is not staged or something, then honestly this is not acceptable to libyans, a sub. and then we support the palestinian people totally, and we will not allow for libya to occupy any country in the world. whether with israel, others we have the libyan people are a free people and we do not allow this until the palestinian people are arabs. and we care about them correctly. now, al da 0 is malik. try it out. or it has more on the story from tripoli on the government's reaction, as well as the public's mood of late last night. the libyan foreign ministry released a statement saying that this the,
7:05 pm
the foreign minister and assignment go shes meeting with you like, owing, was incidental and informal while visiting her account of her and tell you in counterpart in rome, you like home. and these rarely for him is there just happened to be there on the statement added that there was no negotiations, no discussions or consultations in regards to the relationship between israel and libya. but we've seen a anger across the entire country. people went out on the streets last night, calling for her to be dismissed immediately as a result, the prime minister opposite how many debate by suspended her of her duties temporarily last night. he's open investigation. but today we're hearing from source is close to prime minister opposite how many debate about that, and that's the admin goose. libya versus female foreign minister has been dismissed of her duties. also why they've lived in foreign ministry, has tried to downplay this meeting. people here are extremely angry and i think
7:06 pm
it's clear to say that libyans aren't ready to normalize their relations with israel. now, trina, 0 tripoli. now as we mentioned a much more details, is that meeting has been coming from the is really side. as harry faucet reports from wester's, lum, slow, an entirely contradictory narrative is coming from use ready side as opposed to the lady inside of this equation. a foreign ministry official saying that this was a coordinated meeting featuring direct talks, not the kind of accidental bump into you kind of me think that the libyan side has been describing. and that's very much the message that came from the statement of, from the foreign ministry on sunday in which there was reference to discussions about was the technology, agriculture with cooperation, restoring jewish sites inside libya, and the color coding the foreign minister also saying that this was a historic moment, the 1st step putting it in the kind of context of all the efforts towards normalization with other arab states. there was also uh,
7:07 pm
from this foreign ministry official, a, an indication that this was a coordinated announcements of the meeting by the israeli side. but at the same time that was saying that the timing of this announcement was not coordinated. so stretching the definition really a coordination there. and suddenly the lady inside seems to be taken completely unawares by the public nature of all this. and that is attracted a good deal of criticism within his writing as well, especially from the opposition to form a foreign minister from a prime minister. yeah, and i did now the leader of the opposition saying that this was amateurish, but it would dismay other countries engaged in negotiations with israel. he said that this was a morning of national shame that this had taken place. this announcement that'd be made in this way and endangered human life, presumably the life of the libyan foreign minister in return nearly for a headlight. well, a long pink gas is a farmer is really deaf limits and he served as an advisor to
7:08 pm
a former is really prime minister shimon peres. he also says that israel has ruined an opportunity for future engagements with aaa and everything. everything about this was wrong. and you know, it's a, it's really a shame because if, if there is some kind of a, if there are some kind of understanding, if there is a platform on which anything, some kind of dialogue could be built. it was room one for the foreseeable future with these rarely worn minister blabbering about it. and reportedly, at least the libyan inform industry fleeing her country to turkey. this underscores a larger concept, which i happen to think is deeply flawed. in, in the right wing is really thinking about is that you can ignore you, fade avoid circumvent the palestinian issue while i'm making janes,
7:09 pm
or gaining traction, or even recognitions throughout the world. libya the way he called our jordan and egypt obviously, i'm conceivably even saudi arabia that but that's all good and fine. but the thing is, um, you know, doing it and then uh, bragging about it prematurely and undermines even even this concept, which again, i think it's florida and the vision. all right, spanish prosecutors have opened a sexual assault investigation into the countries. football federation president luis ruby alice ruby ellis is under pressure to resign, after kissing spanish player jetting her most so without her consent. now his mother has gone on a hunger strikes a. her son is the victim of any humane hunt. david stokes reports as
7:10 pm
a church in southern spain, and i'd like to be focal point to the kissing scandal that's in gold, spanish football. it's where the mother of louise will be all as has gone on hunger strike, to protest the treatment of a son, who's under pressure to resign, after kissing the spanish play agenda for her most so on the lips. following that will come when his cousin spoke outside the church. if that's available, can i get a good system? of course he's suffering because he doesn't want his mom to be put in this position . but his mom knows what he's like. those who know him know where he is. this type of media reaction is not normal. he's not to harass. so what is not normal? is that this go did what she did. she was playing every 11, the what champions. everyone was happy and 3 days later she says it was harassment . all wheel, stupid ruby l as is already been suspended by football, is well governing body. facebook the 46 year old, but it's a fine speech last week saying you would not quit. and kind to be the victim of a witch hunt and follow softly. municipal spain. second deputy prime minister
7:11 pm
yolanda diaz is the behavior of ruby, olives, and others at the spanish. if i has been unacceptable, he knows felix and i've always kept if i am to give my opinion, all these people supporting therapy, all of us do not have the competency to remain in that post. there is a class that's a violation of rights and alleged acts of sexual harassment. a full case. it's all of us. they must not continue in depositions. it's all very clear women's rights on non negotiable in spain or elsewhere. the kissing rabbits made an impact internationally including in mexico city. what boston loading is women's team is preparing for series of friendly matches. maybe we're going to be in a contract wednesday as we need to find a solution. the need to be consequences. i hope steps will be taken for inclusion and progress to avoid this kind of stain on female football. yeah. so this how can i live with, with this disgusting situation? everyone wants to support had more so everyone has stood with spain and with women . and i think this is positive that's, that's what that is,
7:12 pm
what you're looking for. it's terrible that was power abuse and sexual harassment. you're in an international event that everyone saw the most serious thing, the desk questioning a player when everyone. so it's, and there is video evidence spanish prosecute. as of now i put the sexual assault investigation against ruby as the scandal and folding at a time when spain should still have been celebrating winning the world cup. david stokes them out to 0. okay, for more on the story our own andy richardson is joining us here on the set to talk about the football federation, which is meeting right now about the future of ruby ellis. and talked us a little bit about this meeting and where you think the future is had it for him. i mean, the football federation of flip flopped terribly in terms of whether or not the supposing and will not supposing him on friday at the extraordinary meeting of the federation, wherever, to be honest was able to give this for a long and impassioned speech. started that day,
7:13 pm
we thought this would be the opportunity for him to resign and take the heat out of the situation allows the spanish team to actually celebrate winning the world cup. instead, he played the victim as i was reminding many wise um, when i was covering the face of congress back in 2015. and that was that's how much space was engulfed in corruption scandal. and that morning. remember in switzerland he says the fee for officials being arrested and set flex a robin walking into the congress, holding for contrition and apologies. sat is still out front of the seminal facing was, was round the fluid and that was the exact same sentiments on friday in spring, weather seems to be complete. so cognitive dissonance with everyone else in the world about how they should approach this, how they should approach this situation. i'm more infectious backing them on. so it's, it's a stay in it, in his position. so the football federation, now having a meeting of, of all the federations to the local federations within spain to discuss the
7:14 pm
situation that's now unfolding. you've also got the spanish government involved that creates an issue because on the faithful rules, if a spanish government seems to be interfering in football in that country, that can be suspended. so you could end up with a spanish football team was being suspended from compositions. hostings, unless you've also got to find a spring hoping to fit for the world cup in 2013 and the damaged the reputational damage. that is, it is currently happening to that country is, is huge. but given the facts of the government, scott involves, i mean, has that this really sort of broadened out and sparks kind of a broader debate about women, sports and the aspect of sexual harassment that really has been simmering underneath all this time. first of all, within spain, this is, this is not an isolated incidents as being in the bill which the world comfortable complaints about the culture and sets up 12 of spain's key players. didn't even go to the world captain to protest about the conditions in the training come to a protest about the previous coach, which one of the players say i left on her energy side plays around the world,
7:15 pm
recognize what is happening to they can emphasize whether it's in the u. k, there's an organization called women in football which is uh, an umbrella organization. so it, so women involved in, in, in the game. and they said 82 percent of the women, expensive stuff. it's some sort of harassment in the workplace or on the football pitch, but only 20 percent of them felt empowered arrival to complain about it or even spoke about it and that is reflected across the world. and that is why i think this issue hasn't just become an issue for spain. it's an issue for, for the, for the global getting it, it's great. it's ignited the discussion, the satin assistance over shot of the victory completely. alright, andy richardson, we appreciate you joining us here. thank you. all right, we're going to take a short break, but there's still a lot more head on out here including a day of sheet core hearings in for you as president donald trump's election interference trials. and also had france fans,

7:20 pm
have his diplomat leave saying that it is a violation of international law. and so as a result, the peace keeping force is something that will in fact stay in place. now we are going to talk to alger 0. is gabriel alexander in just a moment. but 1st, we should tell you that the head of the mission and molly has been brave. the un security council ahead of the plan withdrawal of the peace keeping force. our own algae 0 is gabriel, is on the is in fact that the united nations headquarters with that story. and gabriel, what is be a said at that meeting? yeah, this is an important meeting because this is probably the last time that the security council would be briefed about the draw down of peacekeeping troops in molly basically. oh gosh, and wayne, the head of the un mission in molly,
7:21 pm
basically said they're facing a very difficult task under a very tight time frame, trying to meet a december 31st deadline to pull out more than 10000 us peace keeping you in. excuse me. peacekeeping troops from molly, including tons of equipment that go along with that. but he said nevertheless, despite the complexities of it all they are on schedule to meet that december 31st deadline for all un peacekeepers to be out of molly. but it is still many of the, the forces there are facing incredible risk. listened a little bit more of what he had to say. this stuff is made even more challenging by a couple other questions. leave your slide. it really speaks. i'm interested to this, this one should seriously associates if we do prevent
7:22 pm
a security and there's also the question of the wagner group. but the transitional government, it's no secret had been relying on or was planning to rely on the russian wagner group to help provide security. uh, but now with the events you prefer for goes in now dead. the future of the wagner group is very much also now in doubt, so that could add more volatility in the months to come. however, the molly and ambassador to the un spoke and a brief the council as well. and he said to day, the country is prepared, the transitional government and military is prepared to buttress security in this transitional phase, to help with that security vacuum as he called it. but clearly this sense here, from most security council members, is they are
7:23 pm
a little worried about the months ahead. as this draw down continues under very tight deadline. as un forces there continue to come under attack, at least sporadically by various arms groups. and gave you were in that briefing as i understand, given there are a variety of concerns. what else is a sort of a major concern, a in terms of that withdrawal as well. there's a couple of things. there's number one, the complexity of it all trying to withdraw about 12000 peacekeeping troops in a matter of only a few months, is incredibly unprecedented. just to give you an example, it took the un nearly 3 years to draw down. all of the peacekeeping troops in dar for, they're trying to do the same thing, but on a more complex scale in just a few months. not only that, but the geography molly is twice the size of france and they are now in the middle
7:24 pm
of rainy season. which means that these convoys trying to close down bases and get to areas where they can drop down and get their equipment and their troops out of the country is taking an incredibly long amount of time. and then of course, having the sporadic attacks by an, an identified armed groups against the un peacekeepers as we saw twice just last week. add that all up. and it's just an, a task that really the un has never faced on this scale before, particularly the december 31st deadline that the government really wants the peacekeepers out in the u. n. saying we are on track to make that happen. but it's certainly going to be difficult. it will indeed thank you so much, gabrielle. we appreciate you joining us and giving us that perspective. thank you. are going to turn to france now, where the government there is banning mostly students from wearing the a by
7:25 pm
a in state run schools now the education minister said new guidelines will be issued before classes resume next week. now the by is the full length road that's often worn by what muslim women and it's caused much debate on whether it should be allowed in french schools. no growth have long been banned from wearing head scarfs in schools. critics say police and what most of the students wear and crushes of civil liberties. because lot public schools must at any cost perhaps more than any other institution, be protected from religious indoctrination or from the refusal of i'll most important common rules allowed to 0 is natasha butler reports with more from paris is education minister says the be a by a will be banned in french schools from september when children gave back to the cos room. she says that is because the a, by this no loose missing down one by some was the women by lights from these very straight secular rules. now since 2004 in from
7:26 pm
a religious signs and symbols have been banned in schools, including head scalds, capers, and crosses will gabriel. it's how the education minister says that no one can walk into a classroom wearing something which could suggest won't save religion is he also says this has been an increase in violations. all fraud says very strict, secular rules over the past year in from so that is why is the faith around be a buyer has risen? well, there's been a lot of reaction to this brand, those on the political of for rights and rights. have welcome to lose. they say they've been calling for such a fan for a long time. there are other positions on the left, so he stays with his friends, discriminate against muslims, particularly of course, muslim women, one permanent leslie orientation saying this is just another example of prizes and my calls government trying to police was women where and then we've also heard from some very prominent muslim associations who say, says the boy is not
7:27 pm
a religious piece of clothing, it is merely something who and by some women in a to show that they have a cultural identity as a fashion statement to. all right, well there's been a development in the potential court proceedings for a former president, donald trump. allen fisher is standing by live for us on that federal case allen, talk to us a little bit about this latest development. what can you tell us? well, donald trump, of course, sent his lawyers here to try and delay the proceedings against them in washington dc that he conspired to alter the results of the 2020 presidential election. they wanted the trial to start sometime in april 2026. the prosecution. we're moving to get it haired in january next year. the judge in the case tanya tech can, has,
7:28 pm
in the last half hour decided that the case will actually be had on march the for next year. so that's very interesting because it could up the up and the republican presidential nomination race because on march the 5th, it's super tuesday. that's when voters in more than a dozen states will go to the polls to pick their preferred candidates. and of course, donald trump has been claiming that all the actions against them at election in defense to stop them winning the white house back. so just in the last half hour or so last 45 minutes, tanya, chuck and has decided that donald trump will go on trial here in washington dc on 4 charges including conspiracy on march the for 2024. and you were covering the case in georgia, and there's, we understand or potentially important development or hearing in that case involving what is trans code cues. what can you tell us about that? well, there's both a development and an important hearing. the development days. the donald trump and
7:29 pm
his 18 co accused will be arraigned essentially. the charges will be right to them on september the 6th. so next week, i know they don't have to appear in passing more often the note is just the attorneys who will appear on entering the plea in that case, which and don't on this case, we know will be not guilty. they will appear in 15 minute increments. in court in georgia, remember last week we were waiting for them to surrender to the authorities. and then we go to the very famous monk short of donald trump, which he has now been fundraising on. in fact, his campaign save his race somewhere in the region of $7000000.00 in the last few days. but there is a development to with mark meadows is one of his core cues. and his former chief of staff that he is seeing is that the case should be moved to a federal court. he's actually arguing that he acted as a federal employee the direction of the president. and therefore, in this case, he is beyond the reach of the state authorities that they have no position where
7:30 pm
they can charge him. and so at the moment there is a hearing under way in atlanta for a judge suicide. if that is actually the case. if that has the case has been made, unlock, made his case will go to a federal court if that happens by the or is it likely to follow, including donald trump. allen, thank goodness we have to get a key honest on this is a lot to digest and we appreciate you filling us in. thank you. all right, reward across the v u. k. now we're up to 2000000 people are expected to attend this year is not a hill carnival is currently underway in west london. now these are the latest pictures of festival goers marching through the city. the carnival is a 2 day caribbean inspired straight festival that celebrates the u. k. a capitals diversity. it's been called europe's largest tree party and it's currently marketing. it's 55th edition. the.
